    just get bilstein 5100s for the front and set them at 0.75" (i think thats the lowest setting) . that should level it out nicely and make some extra room for the tires.

    5100 is the model specific series. The rears are longer for lifted applications and the fronts are adjustable. The fronts can be set at stock height or at a max of 2.5" of lift.
